From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

This is probably going to be the right choice. Captive markets are a thing and its not always practical for individuals to get out of them. Changing a good worklfow isn't likely to be worth it unless there's a different workflow you want more.
I wanted what I get with Linux more than I wanted any particular element of what my creative workflow was on Windows, but I've never really been super comfortable with the DAW-VST paradigm for music production in general. I'm way happier having to put a bit more work into doing custom stuff my own way than being locked out of entire approaches because that's not how the software is intended to be used and I'm not in the target demographic for pricing. (I'm looking at you specifically, notch and touchdesigner.)
